Very enjoyable game, with a creative method of controlling enemies. Great concept, but i feel like the difficulty ramp can be tweaked a little bit for a more gradual increase in difficulty. Nice game!

Its hard and fast but I like it, is enjoyable. Congratulations!

The idea is great ! The only real downside to me is the lack of background. I had difficulty orienting myself in space. A grid or some minimal geometric scenery would help make the movement feel less disorienting/nauseating.
But great concept !

Thank you! I agree, it really would have been worth to make the background less disorienting. I will bear that in mind.

I like the choice to make it so you can be given multiple chances and buy upgrades when you die. I agree with another comment where it would have been nice to skip the intro dialogue but it's of course a small thing and doesn't diminish the overall pleasant experience.

It's a shame there isn't more feedback. Some freeze frames, screen shake, and a few other little effects would've really improved the game, because it already has a solid foundation!

Also, nice job managing to add upgrades to keep the runs going further. I probably would've sped up the little restart dialogue, or made it skippable when you just want to jump back into the game quickly, but that's a pretty minor detail.

Thank you so much! Your feedback is important to me

Actually, I thought about these details, but I left them until too late and didn’t finish them before the deadline
